Attacked and broken up? (4,5)

I believe the answer is:

took apart

I believe this is a double definition.

'attacked' is the first definition.

'broken up?' is the second definition.

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for took apart that I've seen before include "Was severely critical" , "dismantled" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
